Presently we have 15 days booked in December. Not made a final decision yet but fully suspect that when we finally decide at the end of November we will cancel.

Several reasons to stay here - we are in Tier One and nowhere else is, the village pub will be open, the wood burning stove and a stack of ash logs are too heavy to take away.

Hi Peedee, You ask why on earth anyone would want to go away in the current climate. In my case, now that I know some campsites are open and it will be within the law to travel to them to stay, I have decided to book a short stay at Broadway club site. My reason for doing so is so that I can get some exercise in a different part of the country to where I live. I can't think of anything better than walking in the Cotswolds on a cold frosty morning. I will be very aware of the dangers about me and using my own facilities. I don't consider it will be anymore dangerous than staying at home. I respect your decision not to want to go away, but I also understand those who wish to take a short break.

Posted on 27/11/2020 09:44

While I can understand those who live in closely built up areas wanting to get into the countryside, I would find just being able to take a walk too constraining even if it was in a scenic area. I also like to visit pubs and eat out and visit other indoor attractions.

On my last trip in September I found I was not relaxed enough to enjoy it even though the restrictions were not that great. It would be even worse currently and with the strong likelyhood of a vacine on the horizon, I can wait the winter months out.

Correct me if I'm wrong, Brue, but I think the tiered rules mean that I can visit a pub in Cornwall and order my pint to drink at a table, whereas if you visit you'll need to still follow T2 rules so can only order your pint if it's accompanied by pasty and chips🤔🤷‍♂️🙂

Posted on 27/11/2020 09:50

I think you'll have to order a pasty with gravy and chips too TW. What I don't understand is why I can be a spectator in a crowd of 1 or 2 thousand shouting football fans?! 🤖

We love winter caravanning but I can't understand why anyone wants to go away now given the current pandemic. If you're in Tier 2 or 3 the advice is not to travel outside of those areas.

Yes we'd all like a change of scenery. I've been working from home since 17 March and going stir crazy staring at the same four walls but at least I'm safe. All our Christmas shopping for gifts has been done online and the only place either me or my wife goes to is the supermarket. Only one of us goes. Again, I can't see why people have to go in families just to get food, especially older people who are more vulnerable.

I take the dog to the local park so she can have a run. The best advice is stay at home and stay safe.

Whilst we wouldn't go away at this time of year unless the forecast was for dry weather, there is nothing nicer than exploring new villages and their surroundings. The Alde heated caravan is warmer than our house!

It is also much easier to drag yourself away from your PC when you have pastures new to explore, even though we live in a great area for local walks direct from the house.
